Perhaps the Touareg R will compete with the weaker Cayenne S?

It was about time. They made Passat-R and now it was time for Touareg to get an R version!

I heard this awhile ago but thought it was rumor and posted it here a while ago http://www.germancarzone.com/showthread.php?t=7816

but this is the 1st confirmation of it

Original rumour had it producing 360hp/265kW.

I have no qualms about it, the Treg deserves all the diesel power it can get... Petrol for a gas-guzzling SUV? Not a chance!
